Never fight fairly if you're at a disadvantage because of his size. The main idea is to use your common sense and practicality, and to protect yourself at all costs. This isn't about competition, nor about showing off. This is about realistically defending yourself.
1.47am
There are four ways to break the hold and escape when being grabbed by a bigger man. Deliver a headbutt to the face, bite the skin (the Masseter muscle, the muscle for biting, attached and located in the jaw area, is the strongest muscle in the human body. However, be aware that biting the skin endangers you because your adversary's blood may be infected with HIV or other contagious viral diseases). Stomping the toes can discontinue a bear hug. Or you can simply twist back your foe's finger joints to break his hold
Slipping, bobbing and weaving before a snappy strike is a very essential and effective skill to develop. Being the smaller guy, you're more likely faster than him
Take advantage of your lightness
Capitalize on your speed, lightness and quickness. Volume punching (accumulation factor) favors small fighters. Training with a speed bag is an excellent training tool to develop your speed and rapid striking
Feint. Throw a fake strike followed up by a real strike. Throw a fake left punch to the head then strike him with a real right punch in the solar plexus
if I was on the ground Id roll my back push my legs up
and crocodile kick back from there
Even worse…when you're on top and WINNING the fight, you can expect a bottle or chair to come crashing on your head…to be followed immediately by a half dozen rubber soles coming toward your head like a freight train
Unless you're simply trying to subdue drunk Uncle Charlie at the family picnic, your goal when you feel a fight going to the ground is to do one simple thing…get back on your feet as quickly as possible!
Now, here are 2 powerful ground fighting tips to help you do just that…
Roll Through The Fall
The natural reaction of your body is to "go stiff" and try to fight the inevitable drop to the ground and this typically leads to a hard, flat fall.
Instead, when you're in the "clinch", locked up with your attacker, and you feel like it's heading toward a wrestling match on the ground, you want to drop STRAIGHT DOWN, as close to your attacker's feet as possible, while grabbing his clothing around the chest area, with your hands close together
This places their bodyweight completely off-center and their natural momentum will send them over your own body, making it easy to flip them in the same direction using your knees while twisting them as they fall.
Taking the hand that's easiest to maneuver from your grab on his shirt, let go and drop it down close to your body and toward your groin. Then come around and over the outside of their hands as close to your body as possible so your leverage allows you to break their grasp or continue the motion until you've pinned their hands under your arm. (You can try this standing up versus a normal shirt grab to get the feel of it
